What's Local
Ice cream lovers rejoice! Not only is July National Ice Cream month but today is National Ice Cream Day, so certainly double the fun should be in order! (I am sure my kids will hit me up twice to celebrate)
If you want ice cream at its freshest and its finest then do pay a visit to Morgan's restaurant where we make our very own using local ingredients. (this is where the "What's local" part comes in) We use milk from Ronnybrook Farm Dairy in Ancramdale, NY and fresh eggs from Feather Ridge Farm in Elizaville, NY to give you the ultimate ice cream experience. Today may be the day to step away from traditional vanilla and chocolate (although both are yummy) and try one of our unique flavors such as sour cream. Yes, you read that right: sour cream! Don't turn your nose on this one, it is truly wonderful! We also offer such flavors as balsamic, pretzel, pistachio, and graham cracker. These are all so rich and creamy on their own or paired up with our desserts such as the S'mores Double Chocolate Ganache Torte (as you see below) or Local Apple Fritters. Enjoy a scoop anytime at Morgan's restaurant!
What's new!
You will not need to count sheep when it's time for bed at Interlaken. You can sleep easy with our new bedding ensemble.
We have a new look in our main building Guestrooms, and you can be rest assured that everything you sleep in and on is super fresh and super clean upon your arrival. We triple sheet each and every bed with 300 thread count sheets topped with four fluffy pillows. Each bed has an amazing wonder blanket tucked inside for the perfect amount of comfort. At the end of your stay we remove everything you see here and replace it with a fresh new set, including the blanket. No more questionable duvets or pillows that are tossed on the floor only to be placed back on the bed. Only the freshest and cleanest for our Guests. Please tell us how you like our new look!
What's blooming
It's more like what is NOT blooming here at Interlaken! Wow, with all of the rain and the hot sun the flowers are just so intense right around the wedding cocktail and reception pavilion - as well as all areas around the property. Let the pictures prove it!
"Organic and Homey"
These were the two words that a Guest used to describe the Interlaken property at our Intermingle this week. I like those words alot and have never heard them used together in a sentence regarding Interlaken. I really like this Intermingle hour each week!
It was great meeting this couple this week, and not just because they were complimentary of the Interlaken. They were just super fun, down-to-earth people escaping for an overnight getaway while their kids were away at camp. They particurlarly loved our Woodside pet friendly accommodations for their big "doodle" dogs - one being "golden" and ther other being "labra". Gypsy and Everest are their names and I hope to meet them in the lobby tomorrow so I can give them a little treat - and perhaps they can be my pet of the week! We happened to mentioned that our private lakeside cabin is also pet friendly and they were both extremely interested in that option later this summer. Are you familiar with our lakeside cabin? It is a one bedroom cabin on our "back" lake with complete privacy and your own lake frontage. There are a few dates in August and also some in September that are still available, so if a quiet and restful vacation are in order soon be sure to look into this very unique accommodation.
Talking Tea
As you may know I love to talk about tea, especially Harney and Sons tea, so you can imagine my delight at our "Intermingle" this evening when Mr. John Harney himself walked in. "Master Tea Blender" is what he is and Master Tea Blending" is what his family business does. Harney and Sons tea company was created 30 years right here in Salisbury, CT and is now headquarted in Millerton, NY. I always recommend to our Guests that if they are tea lovers (or likers even) it is a must do!Although I didn't approach Mr. Harney right away I eventually made my way to him and said "Hello Mr. Harney. I love your tea. I start my day with English Breakfast (me too he said) and in the afternoon enjoy Earl Grey (he said he has been choosing Sencha and I said I would make the switch for the summer myself). So if you've always wondered which tea Mr. Harney himself prefers over the hundreds of tea offerings they have, here it is. Be sure to visit his shop in Millerton or SOHO and of course on-line at Harney and Sons Fine Teas.
It was another nice turn-out for our weekly cocktail hour of getting to know Guests and local business people. I also want to say "It was nice meeting you Nancy!"
Come join us next week when we meet in the Executive Lounge at 5pm to 6pm.

Comments about Look PX 10 Wide Ski Bindings (100mm Brakes) 2013:
Great for lighter weight skiers up to about 160 pounds. Not just a junior binding. Check your personal DIN setting to see if it's right for you.

The Look PX 10 is a great binding for my 14 year old who skis anything and everything.

About Me Intermediate
Great bindings. They get your boot very close to the ski. They have great power-transfer. Very easy entry and release. These felt much better than other bindings I've used; I seemed to have more control of the skis.

About Me Advanced
Great bindings just not the best to get out of. Not for someone who gets out frequently
Binding Broke
By Disappointed Dad
from Cedarburg, WI
The bindings were for my son. He is 5'10" and weighs 130 lbs and these are adult bindings. One of the back bindings bent/broke 1 hour into first use. Called Evo last Thursday to report. Now need to go through warranty process. My son loved them until they broke. Already replaced them with other Look bindings (NX-11) at local ski shop as drill holes are the same.
I love look bindings

Very good set of bindings, affordable, very efficient delivery by EVO

Tomb Raider is an action-adventure platform video game. Published by Square Enix, Tomb Raider is the fifth title developed by Crystal Dynamics in the Tomb Raider franchise. As the first entry in a new Tomb Raider continuity, the game is a reboot that emphasizes the reconstructed origins of the culturally influential lead character Lara Croft. Tomb Raider was released on 5 March 2013 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Microsoft Windows to universal critical acclaim.
Tomb Raider lets the overclocked MSI R9 290X 4GB Lightning OC see a nice boost in performance that lets the 2560 x 1600 average hit 61 FPS. Looking above, you can see it's the only setup that manages to break the 60 FPS barrier at that resolution. It's also accompanied by an extremely strong 49 FPS minimum.

The Honor System is one of Princeton's proudest academic traditions because it was established and has been maintained almost exclusively by undergraduates. Examinations at the College of New Jersey (as Princeton University was then known) in the late 19th-century were rife with cheating; students saw cheating as a way to outwit the faculty, while professors went to great lengths to uncover undergraduate cheating. Booth Tarkington '1893, as quoted in W. Joseph Dehner, Jr.'s 1970 paper, described this rivalry as a continuous sly warfare between the professor and the student. Crib sheets were common, as was sharing answers during examinations. Students who refused to collaborate were ridiculed. Reporting fellow students to the faculty was seen as dishonorable and out of the question for most students. Professors, on the other hand, would spend exams stalking the recitation rooms watching for any inconsistencies, and sometimes hired extra sets of eyes for the purpose of catching cheaters.
Student dissatisfaction with this culture of cheating and sly warfare reached a crescendo in 1893, when some of the most influential juniors and seniors proposed to substitute this system with one that placed undergraduate test-takers on their honor. Honor systems were not uncommon at southern schools, such as the College of William and Mary and the University of Virginia, and many Princeton undergraduates had gone to southern preparatory schools with prominent and successful honor systems. Senior Charles Ottley '1893 and several juniors drew on their practical experience with the honor system at the Webb School in central Tennessee as they pushed for an honor system at Princeton.
The Daily Princetonian, in an editorial dated January 13, 1893, endorsed an honor system as proposed by Ottley and others. Undergraduates would pledge their honor that they would not cheat by writing and signing the following declaration at the bottom of their examination papers: I pledge my honor as a gentleman that, during this examination, I have neither given nor received aid [or assistance]. The faculty would take them at their word and refrain from proctoring examinations. Students would be expected to report any honor code violations they witnessed, and students, by rough consensus, would determine guilt and recommend punishment.
The faculty who, needless to say, were also dissatisfied with the cheating at Princeton, concluded that such undergraduate enthusiasm for honor and honesty should not be discouraged. At the next faculty meeting, Dean James Murray motioned that the faculty consent to the students' honor system plan. With Professor Woodrow Wilson's eloquent support, the motion passed. Dean Murray's senior English examinations in February 1893 were the first to be taken under the new system.
The Honor System was a decisive success. There were few violations, mostly concentrated in the freshmen class, and students were fair when determining guilt and recommending punishment. The faculty accepted the recommendations without reservation every time. In 1895 students approved an Honor System constitution, which established a standing committee to judge honor code violations. The committee consisted of the presidents of the four classes plus one junior and one senior selected by the other members. The default punishment was to be expulsion, and only two committee votes would be required for conviction. This was soon amended to five votes of six.
There have been few changes to the constitution since. In 1921 the student body unanimously changed the number of committee members to seven. They also agreed that in exceptional cases the committee could recommend a more lenient punishment. A post-war expansion of the Honor System to apply to all academic work instead of just in-class examinations (the Spirit of the Honor System) was set aside by the senior council in 1927 as too difficult to enforce fairly. In 1928 some students complained that they were not aware that they would have to abide by the honor code when they matriculated, and specifically, that they did not want to be responsible for turning in cheating classmates. The Honor Code Committee decided to send notice of the honor code to all incoming freshmen and require that they respond, signaling their willingness to abide by it. This practice continues to this day. A mass student assembly was held to explain the honor code every September until the mid 1990s. With the introduction of women undergraduates in 1970, gentleman was removed from the pledge to read I pledge my honor that I have not violated the Honor Code during this examination. The size of the committee was also expanded to twelve undergraduates, including alternates.
Students are now required to pledge on their honor that they have not cheated on other academic work in addition to in-class examinations, but violations of this pledge fall under the jurisdiction of the discipline committee (made up of faculty and administrators as well as students), not the Honor Code committee. The student-enforced Honor System is still a success over a century later: a recent Daily Princetonian poll reports just two percent of Princeton undergraduates have cheated on an in-class exam.

This recipe was just ok flavor-wise. I was looking for something a little sweeter so next time I'll add some sugar. The consistency came out great when baked for 45 minutes in a 13x9 casserole dish as a previous review stated.
Delicious and easy - just what I was looking for to go with grilled pork tenderloin dinner party. I put in a 13x9 pan and it was fine, but will say that it was perfectly cooked at 45 mins at high altitude when it should have take longer- I did add a little more flour - ie a larger heaping 1/3 cup. Be sure to watch it at 45 mins, nicely browned, and no jiggling - clean toothpick or knife -it's done! Recommend less salt - no need for full tsp - canned corn is salty. and add a little pepper or grated herbs on top.....
I made this last year for Thanksgiving and my family requested it again this year instead of the heavy corn pudding recipe that uses the corn muffin mix. You can taste the sweetness of the corn.
This is an excellent recipe that I have using for the past two years. I miss Nigella! My entire immediate and extended family always nominate me to bring the corn pudding to different functions! DARN GOOD!!!!!!!!
This was nice and fluffy. Not too sweet. The only change I might make is to add a little pepper or other spice.
I was raised in the south & my grandma use to make this & I never had a recipe that came close to that taste until now, if you like southern food this is great tastin! some people would not try this because of the name but dont let that be the cause for not trying it, you wont be disappointed at all, it is oh so YUMMY!

North Korean hackers are using identity information purloined from South
Koreans - including their resident registration numbers - to post
diatribes on local message boards accusing the government of fabricating
the probe results into the sinking of the warship Cheonan.
An intelligence source said yesterday North Korean hackers recently
bombarded a message board at a South Korean online community site with
posts claiming the government had made up the accusation against
The source said the hackers have obtained personal information "through
various channels" and their servers were likely based in Beijing. In
order to write messages on Web portals in South Korea, one must be a
registered user, and the 13-digit resident registration numbers are
required for membership. The hackers have tracked down those numbers and
corresponding names, and used them to open accounts on Web sites, the
source said.
Authorities have been trying to crack down on rumors that the results of
the probe into the Cheonan sinking were fabricated and used by Seoul to
disgrace North Korea. Several "netizens" and left-leaning activists have
been detained for questioning for allegedly spreading such rumors.

LOS ANGELES, CA (7 JULY 2014) - Men's Rights Activists are swarming twitter, attacking the story of The Fall. A biblical account of how sin entered the world through the first humans - Adam and Eve - they use the hashtag #GodHatesMen, claiming that this Judeo-Christian belief is misandrist by putting blame of sinfulness on the male species.
A few tweets from the protest
"The Church holds Adam responsible for ruining the world. I mean, really?! Adam was forced to pay the price for something Eve did. He's totally innocent!" one activist told FNN journalists.
"Men already have to live in a society that views them as murders and rapists. We don't need some matriarchal religion also telling our boys are evil as well!" his friend added.
However, Father Robert Barron - a popular Catholic theologian - says otherwise.
"The Fall is far from a misandrist account. Both Adam and Eve chose to eat from the forbidden fruit, and both were punished for it. He may have been held responsible, but the fault was not put squarely on his shoulders." Fr. Barron explains.
"He watched as his wife at from the tree, doing nothing to stop her. And she in turn committed the act and convinced Adam into eating the forbidden fruit with her. This shows are married couples are to look out for one another, to help one another become holy. Adam and Eve both failed at this when they disobeyed God together."
Still, MRAs find issue with the biblical view on marriage, as men are expected to submit to their wives as selfless, self-sacrificial leaders on their woman's behalf. Just two months ago, a similar MRA hashtag, #CutTheBallAndChain, protested against this very ideology. Both twitter parties site the Christian view of marriage as misandrist and harmful to the societal status of men.
"Men can not find true freedom if they are expected to be carrying so much weight in a relationship." explained one facebook post. "Men shouldn't have to be strong for women or be expected to own up to fatherhood if they don't want to."

I have the good fortune this week to be in this situation and I want some input. I have a chance to buy a VERY nice custom fusion commander 1911 stainless in .40 cal (my fav) for about 1k. Or I could use the same money to buy a Para P14-40 and a shotgun. I already own a Full size Para and like it allot.
In these troubled times what do you think is the wise move? One or two? JD, Husker, Sixto?

framesets or DW templates
some years ago I heard that framesets were to be avoided in order to do clean-html code
Now I have a site with 10 small pages, and some sections (footer, menubar, title,...) is repeated again and again.
What is the proper way to save time and typing and, nevertheless, stick to clean-html-CSS? Framesets? Dreamweaver templates (which I don't like)?

Hello amc,
I never liked DW templates either, and you're right to avoid frames.
I use PHP includes for things like menus that stay constant over a number of different pages.
Have a look at a basic tutorial here. Very quick and simple to implement.
Validate often DURING development - Use it like a splelchecker | Debug during Development |Write it for FireFox, ignore IE
Use the right DocType | Validate your markup | Validate your CSS | Why validating is good | Why tables are bad

thanks. i see that PHP is a server side language. My provider doesn't support this for my current contract.
Perhaps I might develop it locally, and generate the final html out of the php components, and then upload the final html . Is it feasible?

As she infamously sang previously, "A diva is a female version of a hustler," and hustle she did. Beyonce worked her ass off last year and it paid off. She tops Forbes annual list of the Top Earning Women In Music. She takes over Madonna who earned Forbes' honor last year with $125 million. Surprisingly, Madge didn't make the Top 10 cut on this year's list.
With Queen Bey's multi-platinum surprise album, successful solo and joint tour which consisted of 95 concerts, along with lucrative endorsement deals with H&M and Pepsi, she raked in a whopping $115 million over the past 12 months. Her most successful year to date. The 33-year-old mogul generated almost doubled what the runner-up earned. Check out the rest of the Top 10 below.
Tyler Posey has certainly grown up since playing Jennifer Lopez's adorable son in Maid In Manhattan. The 22-year-old Teen Wolf actor is one hot piece of inked beef these days.
Posey rocks a pair of Ellen-branded pink boxer briefs all in the name of Breast Cancer Research on the Ellen Degeneres Show. P!nk is the lucky one who gets to dunk Posey.
Unfortunately, the "Just Give Me A Reason" singer doesn't have the best aim. In fact, it's kinda pitiful even when she gets at close range. At one point I was worried we'd never get to see Tyler all wet. Thankfully P!nk gives up and just hits the button on the dunking tank. Check out all the action below.
Recently, P!nk joined forces with Canadian singer Dallas Green to form a new folk duo called you + me. They release their first album together titled rose ave. on October 14.
Their first track "you + me" was a gentle folk ballad. They follow that up with another acoustic-driven gem. This time, however, P!nk dedicates the song, "Break The Cycle," to her mother.
"We were at the bar talking and I really wanted to write a song about my mom," P!nk tells HuffPost Entertainment. "It didn't turn out to be quite the love song I thought it would be, but it's very honest and came out to be so much more." Give the track a listen below and weigh in afterward.
P!nk is switching genres once again. She burst onto the scene with a more urban sound before going with a pop rock vibe. She's flipping the script once again, and this time not doing it alone.
The 35-year-old entertainer is teaming up with Canadian singer Dallas Green, forming a new folk duo called you + me. Their forthcoming album which features ten tracks, titled rose ave., is coming on October 14.
Check out the lyric video for their first single "You and Me" below. It's a nice acoustic ballad. Folk music suits P!nk quite well.
I don't know about you, but I feel Shazam is probably one of the best apps ever created. There is nothing more frustrating than hearing a song but not being able to remember the title or artist. Even worse, if you hear it on your favorite TV show and rack your brain trying to figure it out, but still come up empty-handed. Honestly, Shazam has saved me numerous headaches. I also love using it as a makeshift to-download list for songs I need to purchase. The service has been partially credited for Icona Pop's success. Their hit "I Love It" went on to be Shazamed more than two millions times in the US after appearing on Girls.
In the past several years, Shazam's activity has increased at an astronomical rate. In 2011, Adele was tops with 4 million Shazams. In 2012, five artists achieved more than five million tags. This year, 43 artists have achieved more than five million Shazams. The popular music tagging service revealed their annual list of most popular tags. Check out the lists below and see if your tagging contributed to the totals.
Despite all the headlines and chart success, Miley Cyrus received no Grammy nominations. I guess all her antics scared off Academy voters. Here's a small consolation prize for being snubbed.
VEVO recently released their annual list ranking the ten most played music videos of the year. In no shocker, Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball" topped the list. After all, the clip generated 19.3 million views on its first day of release and was the fastest to be certified in VEVO's history by reaching 100 million views within just six days. As of December 1, the much-spoofed clip stood tall with over 371 million views worldwide. Last year's winner, "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen notched 357 million clicks in 2012.
The most interesting part of the list is how a couple of leftovers from last year made the list. Both Rihanna's "Diamonds" and will.i.am's collabo with Britney landed in the Top 10. On the flip side, Katy Perry breaking the Top 5 is equally as impressive, given that "Roar" only premiered just in August. Check out below what other clips were extremely popular in 2013.
Typically, I'm not a fan of artists passing off concert footage as a new music video, but it's P!nk. The woman can do no wrong in my books. Plus, her new visual was taped during her record-breaking tour in Melbourne, Australia. The "Try" singer sold out a record 18 shows. Love, love, love that city. I'd move there in a heartbeat.
Reportedly, this video is her thank you to her Aussie fans. Also, the clip serves as bit of a promo for her upcoming concert DVD hitting stores this holiday season.
"Walk of Shame" is her fifth off her multi-platinum selling album, The Truth About Love. The single is only being released officially and sent to radio in Down Under. BOO. Check out the Greg Kurstin-directed clip below. Ummm, what exactly did he direct? Enlighten me. It's concert footage.
If you didn't know by now, I have the hugest hard-on for Miguel. Hands down, he's the best and sexiest male R&B singer in recent years. Single-handedly, he reignited my love for R&B slow jams with his extremely steamy track, "Adorn." Naturally, I was going to share the 27-year-old singer's acoustic cover of this classic. It doesn't hurt that it's one of our favorite tracks from P!nk.
While on a promotional tour in Australia, Miguel stopped by Fifi & Jules to deliver a wicked acoustic set including "Just Like A Pill." He gives the track new dimension with his stripped-down and emotional rendition. If you're a fan of P!nk's classic track, you definitely have to watch it. As an extra added bonus, I embedded a cover by Miguel of another pop starlet. A couple of years ago, back when he was starting out, he took on "Hold It Against Me" for Billboard. Check out both performances below.

I have a compound miter saw that doesn't cut the angle it says it will -- it's a little off. I thought it was just me, but my son tried to use it, swore at it, and ran home to get his own. Should I landfill with it, or can these be re-calibrated somehow? |
Follow-Up Postings:
What make/model is it? Does any hardware look distorted? Does it wobble in directions that it shouldn't (side-to-side)? My first thought would be that the hinge bolt is loose. Take care working around it, though. It's spring-loaded. |

Another possible cause is that the fence is out of alignment. Usually there's a way to adjust this. |
Randy, I'd have to do some gymnastics to get at it right now to give you answers. I don't remember it wobbling, but I will check all the bolts on it. In terms of years it's not young, but in terms of usage it sure is. Bobsmyuncle, thanks for that link! I've book marked it. I'm going to be hauling that saw out again within a few weeks for a job I want to do, and I'll consult with that and see if I can fix it. Thank you both! |

Checking with a square or triangle is good, but I prefer to grab a scrap that has parallel sides and make some test cuts. Generally this will double the amount of error when you put the cut edges together and allows you to get spot on. |

Corsair HX850 review
If you're looking for a high-quality PSU with plenty of power and lots of flexibility, then the Corsair HX850 could just be the model that you're looking for.
This 850W power supply has an 80 Plus Gold certification, which means that it's at least 88 per cent efficient at all loads. In our tests it beat the certification throughout, managing 88.56 per cent at 100 per cent load, 90.72 per cent at 50 per cent load and 88.6 per cent at 20 per cent load. That means that it's going to be comparatively cheap to run.
The 80 Plus Gold certification means that this is a very efficient PSU
We're pleased to say that it's a very quiet power supply, too. We found that up to loads of 500W, the HX850 didn't even need to turn its fan on, making it silent. Even at higher loads, though, it wasn't loud and this is a quiet and efficient PSU.
Flexibility is also very good thanks to the modular design, with only the motherboard, CPU and two PCI Express 6+2-pin cables captive. This means that you can largely choose which connectors you want inside your case, reducing clutter. With a choice of 12 Molex and 12 SATA cable, plus four additional 6+2-pin PCI Express cables, there's certainly enough for even the most packed PC.
Overall, this is a fantastic PSU that you can rely on if you're building a high-end PC. The only thing holding back from an award is the slightly-cheaper XFX Pro 850W XXX Edition, which is marginally the better buy.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

think the article articulates well how stupid FIFA is. I will be coming up
with some thoughts of my own soon...
U.S. chief: 'Happy' to do MLS trial cases
ESPN.com news services
Time For Goal Line Technology From FIFA?
JOHANNESBURG -- The head of the U.S. Soccer Federation is willing to have
Major League Soccer experiment with changes that would reduce errors by
on-field officials.
"We'd be happy to do some trial cases, not rules of the game or something
like that, but with an additional referee or technology," USSF president
Sunil Gulati said Monday.
FIFA president Sepp Blatter opposes the use of technology, saying soccer
needs to retain a human element.
Gulati said a FIFA executive committee member, whom he didn't identify,
gave his own personal views about using technology.
United States team page
For more about the U.S. and its chances in South Africa this summer, click
"He was outlining a system that he had in his own mind thought of which
was very similar to the NFL system, with the obvious difference of
continuous action. But a challenge system, if the challenge is upheld,
then you retain," Gulati said. "I don't think there's any doubt that FIFA
will look at what's happened here, whether it's additional referees or
some limited form of goal-line technology which they've looked at. They'll
look at some things."
Gulati said he received an e-mail from someone about the Frank Lampard
shot in England's game against Germany that replays showed clearly went
over the goal line yet wasn't counted.
"A billion people know that it was a goal -- instantly. One or three
didn't. Or two, I guess, the linesmen," Gulati quoted the e-mail as
saying. "Referees haven't gotten worse; technology has gotten a lot
Not having the time on the stadium clock is another contentious issue.
"A billion people are watching the game, and the only one in the world
that knows when the game is going to end is the one with the watch on his
hand, so people ask about that," he said. "They're not immune to change,
it just takes longer."
It's a debate that has roiled virtually every major sport in recent years
-- and the inexorable trend has been to adopt video replay and other
high-tech systems to help with some of the toughest calls in the most
high-profile situations.
The Grand Slam tennis tournaments use Hawk-eye, a sophisticated high-speed
camera system, for line calls.
The National Football League lets coaches request a limited number of
video replay reviews.
The National Hockey League uses replay to assess disputed goals, a policy
that would have spared FIFA, soccer's ruling body, from the current
The NBA uses replays in a few crucial situations, notably to determine
whether a last-second shot beat the buzzer.
Even Major League Baseball, after years of resistance, has allowed limited
use of replays to judge the validity of borderline home runs. But, in
company with FIFA, MLB remains loyal to the concept of fallible
officiating, and says it doesn't want any technology that would overrule
bad calls behind the plate or on the bases.
Even the recent blown call at first base by umpire Jim Joyce -- costing
Detroit's Armando Galarraga a perfect game -- didn't spark any urgent
reappraisal by MLB.
Amid the World Cup tumult, FIFA has hunkered down.
"We obviously will not open any debate. This is obviously not the place
for this," its spokesman, Nicolas Maingot, told a hostile and unusually
large group of journalists at the daily tournament briefing Monday.
Blatter, the FIFA president who was in the stands during both
controversial calls Sunday, offered no public comment. But he has stood
firm in recent years in rejecting video technology that would enable match
officials to see the same replays that are shown within seconds on TV.
"Let's leave football with errors," Blatter said in 2008 when experiments
with goal-line technology and video replay were halted by FIFA's rules
panel, the International Football Association Board.
Some soccer VIPs supported Blatter's stance even in the wake of the bad
"I would leave it the way it is," said Brazil's coach, Dunga. "If there is
no controversy in football, you wouldn't be there and I wouldn't be here."
However, veteran coach Guus Hiddink, who led the Netherlands and South
Korea to World Cup semifinals in 1998 and 2002, said Blatter should resign
unless he swiftly OKs video replay. And FIFPro, which represents pro
players worldwide, demanded that referees get access to high-tech
"The entire football world once again reacted with disbelief to FIFA's
stubborn insistence that technology does not belong in football," FIFPro
said. "The credibility of the sport is at stake."
Even one of the German players who prevailed over England, striker
Miroslav Klose, said change should come.
"I am not sure about video replays, but if you have a chip in the ball
that sends a signal to the referee's ear or beeps, then why not?" he said.
"If you can have it in other sports, why not in football?"
Klose was referring to technology that would imbed a chip in the ball and
allow for precise, instant determinations of whether it fully crossed the
goal line.
Paul Hawkins, the inventor of the Hawk-eye system used in tennis, says a
version of his technology -- using cameras positioned around the stadium
-- also could help soccer referees almost instantaneously with goal-line
calls, though FIFA has rejected it.
"Referees want goal-line technology. It would be there to help them, not
to replace them," Hawkins told the British news agency Press Association.
Whether the referees at the World Cup agree with him remains unclear. FIFA
has not made any of them available to discuss it.
At a media session last week, referees who made the first hotly disputed
calls at the tournament did not attend. Reporters were unable to ask Koman
Coulibaly of Mali why he waved off a late United States goal against
Slovenia, or quiz Frenchman Stephane Lannoy why he sent off Brazil's Kaka
against Ivory Coast.
Even the United States' first-round victory against Algeria in the final
minutes of injury time included a controversial call, when an early U.S.
goal was ruled offside.
On Sunday, just before the England-Germany game, FIFA secretary-general
Jerome Valcke said changes to the officiating regimen were possible --
though in the form of more manpower, not technology.
"It doesn't mean the use of video -- that is definitely not on the table
today -- but one thing we are discussing is two additional assistants to
support referees to make decision-making easier and to have more eyes
helping him," Valcke said.
FIFA had hoped the issue was put to rest -- at least for this year -- when
its rules panel declined in March to commission any new technology
experiments. Blatter said video technology would be too expensive to
impose worldwide on FIFA's 208 members, many of them strapped for funds,
and would break up the flow of games.
"No matter which technology is applied, at the end of the day a decision
will have to be taken by a human being," Blatter said. "Other sports
regularly change the laws of the game to react to the new technology. We
don't do it and this makes also the fascination and the popularity of

Rob, in his first public appearance since the Kristen Stewart scandal, appeared cool, calm and collected on 'The Daily Show' — is this further proof that the power couple has broken up?
Robert Pattinson has been through a wide range of emotions lately — HollywoodLife.com reported that he was feeling frustrated, sad, angry and hurt after photos surfaced of Kristen Stewart cheating on him. But in his first media appearance since the scandal, he seemed to be happy and healing! Do you think they've broken up?
With Robert Pattinson laughing through Jon Stewart's jokes and digs about K-Stew, we're thinking the dynamic duo has broken up. If they were together, wouldn't he be standing up for her? Wouldn't he look more uncomfortable? He actually looked happy!
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers?

Hi Kristen, we hope you read this, I hope you are ok,..we want to say, get your family, integrity and career back on track first….Do a comedy or something lighter. above all.. Get some counselling, to sort out your feelings and dont swear in public, but at home yeah thats normal for you and for us. We love your edginess and mysterious, and avoid the press. as much as possible. Because you have two engagment to get out of the way. Twilight and MTV. Chin up you have got through the worse month, these awkward moments are coming up and it will be over soon and try to avoid Mr No Backbone and no eye contact. lol We are only to try tomake you feel better. Some of us think Rob didnt give you a fair chance, and we think he cheated on you behind your back. He didnt fight for his relationship, and that in my book is really sad. But hey, live and learn, we know you only made one mistake, and it cost you everything. But it will get better. You will find someone who will love you for your quirkiness and sense of humour. That you can trust, when you are working overseas, hes not going to parties, and putting his pencil (lol) everywhere in every hotel, Lets face it. the story we hear, will come to haunt him oneday. Aids is around. mmmm. skanks are around. my friends and twin sister thinks Rob is a good dude,(sort of) but didnt have the balls to hang on to what more important. to him. all the best,
Posted at 8:00 AM on August 15, 2012
She was fighting real hard for the relationship from inside that Mini-Cooper.— I haven't seen any efforts from her to save the relationship that matches the tamest of those pictures. Even the rumors of "something" being done are weak. Seriously—–think—what efforts can anyone point to other than that ill advised press release? I'm not attacking you, and I'd like to see all this fixed like right now. Like it or not she's the guilty party in this mess. The major burden to fix these things is always on the guilty party. Rumors of something He might have done are worthless without some real proof. (like pictures secretly taken with a telephoto lens) She needs to do something big to turn this around, and do it quickly. If she plays it right, Rob comes home, and the fans will all go ahh that was so awesome-and maybe all will be forgiven on a probationary basis, or at least everyone will calm down.Somebody needs to help her out, instead of just watching and laughing.

PR or not ..But no one can deny the fact that this scandal is helping promote Cosmopolis. Its too coincidental this scandal happened around the same time before the US Cosmopolis premiere. To me, its also interesting during the John Stewart's interview, he did mention he's too cheap to hire a publicist. Before any of this happened, Bel Ami went straight to video and when Cosmopolis first opened overseas, hardly anyone saw it. A reporter who was a movie reviewer for the Daily Mail in London had wrote that he was the only paying customer in the movie theater.At the same time, Kristen was named Forbes highest paid actress, she was the face for Balenciaga, was named Best Dress in many of the big fashion house magazines esp in the UK, and worked with Karl Lagerfeld. If Kristen was in this plan all along to sacrifice her career for his, boy does she deserve a lot of apologies.
As for Rupert, he was unknown in HW before any of this. SWATH was his very first feature film. IMO, it's only going to help him direct more feature films.
I still like Rob and Kristen.I wouldn't doubt they would somehow get back together to promote BD2, and it's going to make that movie even way bigger than it is. After that though, I think they're really both read to move on from Twilight. IMO, they've probably all outsmarted us.

what do you want? to cry robert in this inteview? everyone know he feels very bad. and he is dissapointed he doesnt know what to do. but he has carier . he is actor . he has managers . he has director. nobody cares his private life. this is film's premier and nobody wants to see sad actor. isnt it true?
Things that make you go hmmmm
Posted at 11:16 PM on August 14, 2012
I truley don't get some people!! Why in the world would kristen want to look like a home wrecker, seriously!! This was a set up by both of them, are you kidding!! I don't think being with a married man and have it publised to the world is something anyone one would want to plan OMG!! Theory upon theory, it's a joke!! She had an affair with a married man and got caught simple. There are no other explanations!!!
The press keep on asking Rob " are you ok", well what do you think!!! What does everyone want him to say and do!!! Cry to the world, bag her, have a nervous break down!!! You could plainly see that the guy is devastated, anybody in that position would be. He is a human going through the same emotions we would go through!! Why in the world would you want to go out in public after being humiliated in front of the whole world!! Not privately, but everyone knows that your girlfriend cheated on you!! You would feel angry, embaressed, feel stupid and humiliated!!!
As for Kristen i'm pretty sure she feels pretty cheap right now!! No, they weren't engaged or married, but being married is just a peice of paper at the end of the day, they were in a commited relationship for a long time and living together. Not to mention, she cheated with a guy who was and had kids!! I don't believe in the crap that Kristen is the only one who is being punished in all this and she is losing out on her movies!! I feel that Kristen herself choose not to do it right now cause she needs to get her life back on track!! She has been working hard and I feel it is good that she is taking a break from all of this!! Let's not forget that Rupert is no one in the public eye so nothing is being really said bout him cause no one really cares, but that dosen't mean he is less to blame, it's just that Kristen is in the publis eye!! I still don't get what she did or why she did it but my heart goes out to Rob, what he has to go through the media right now must be beyond tough. Love you Rob :)
Ow and for the Krisbian's, don't try to put the blame on anyone else, she only has herslf to blame, at the end of the day she could of just broke it of, that's the decent thing to do!! Don't make her out to be a hero right now and ow people make mistakes, that's a pretty awful mistake to make!! It's not a joke and if it happened to you, i don't know if you would like other people supporting your partner, JUST SAYING!!

This is my theory. Rob, Kristen, Rupert and Liberty all planned it, but due to Twihardness, it went way overboard. Planned it right before the Olympics to make it dissapear fast, but overshadowed it. Rob's stagnant career has been shot back to life. He probably lost weight training for Mission Blacklist at end of Aug. Rupert and Liberty are household names, and marriage still intact, now even getting counseling. This cheating thing or presentation on a scale I would rate it a pg. It was filmed in a public park and a mini cooper, almost comical. It could have been a sex tape. As soon as it broke, Rob and Kristen dissapeared. No pics of Rob at Reece Ranch and she never verified it. Lastly, Kristen is no longer typecasted as little sweet Bella and she doesn't have to deal with Robs fans again. Before you judge, just think about this….

you must be happy he does not speak of kristen, he was always there to kristen, it is time to stop to have mistaken the victims, I wish him the best with or without it!

nene, thank goodness, finally somebody who thinks what I do. All I saw last night was a young man trying not to spill the beans. I just wish more people could see through this. I adore him and Kristen. I just don't understand why this is all happening. Maybe we'll find out at the BD part 2 premiere. Who knows

when people asked him in the past if he was dating her, and joked about them having a 'reel and real' romance he didn't say anything either. she didn't as well.
why not talk about what david c (can't even spell that last name. director of rob's movie.) said, "people think they know what's going on, but they don't." that seemed pretty interesting. he finished it with, "that (the incident) doesn't effect men, and shouldn't effect my movie."
Stupid ppl..

@Tracey Brown Riley : You cant be serious..ik we all have are opinions but still. After all of this…you STILL think its fake? Do u think rob would pull a stunt like that? Do you think liberty would be in on a stunt like that when she has two kids who will one day google their dads name and see this? Come on..lets face it. its time to face reality here. Ik u want kristen & rob to be happily ever after and thats not a bad thing at all but things dont always work out. This isnt Eclipse when edward just takes bella back after her momentary indescretion with jacob. This is real life. If they get back together..fine. If they dont..fine. But if u think this is still fake then okay girl..you believe that.

There is no way Rob would agree to scandal with Kristen hooking up with a married man, yea if really want to stretch this theory that it is a publicity stunt, would maybe agree to another guy(but not married ) that is just a career dose dive, that is too risky and offensive, there are certain topics off table when considering fame(positive or negative), EX-abortion,suicide,affair with married person.

Freshman Abby Stevens |
Sept. 29, 2012
By Cara Maio
Athletic Media Relations
FORT COLLINS, Colo. – The Colorado State women's tennis team concluded day two at the Jack Taylor Classic held by Boise State Saturday.
Freshman Abby Stevens advanced to the semifinals in the second round loss consolation draw, as did junior Kaley Schultz. Stevens won easily 6-0, 6-0. Schultz had a tough match but won, 7-5, 0-6, 1-0 (10-2).
"Today was one of the tougher days of competition," said Head Coach Messick. "But we held up really good."
In the orange flight, first round loss consolation draw, sophomore Adriana Wojakowska advanced to the semifinals.
Freshman Jennifer Weissmann was the only player to advance to the championship. She had a tough three-set match but fought through winning 0-6, 6-2, 6-2.
"Our effort was as competitive as it has been," said Messick.
Sophomore Natalie Heffron and freshmen Mollie Cooper and Kendall Heitzner lost in the quarterfinals.
In doubles, Schultz and Heitzner advanced to the championship of the first round loss consolation blue flight draw.
"Over half of the team is still playing," said Messick.
In doubles, the Rams were 10-2. Out of the two matches the Rams lost, they came back and had a chance to win.
"It was a lot better than yesterday," said Messick.
The Rams will return to the courts to finish the invitational, Sunday morning.

Joseph B. Abbott, son of Daniel, was born in Surry, August 1, 1835. His grandfather, Daniel Abbott, settled in Surry, in 17- was a tailor, married Lucy Harvey, of Surry, in 1794, and reared four children. He went to aid in suppressing the outbreak near Lake Champlain in 1812, and was never heard from again. His son Daniel was a farmer, and was often called upon to do town business. Joseph B. fitted for college at Keene, went to Illinois, where he taught school, and then to Newburn, N. C., where he taught school about four years. After the war broke out he went to Washington, where he had charge of the Special Relief branch of the United States sanitary commission, and in 1868 he settled in Richmond, N. H., engaging in the manufacture of lumber. He has held various town trusts, including town representative in 1876, and was chosen county commissioner in 1874, which position he held three years. In 1877 he was appointed, by President Hayes, agent to the Ute tribe of Indians in Colorado, and resided at Los Pinos agency a little over a year, when he resigned and came to Winchester. He was soon after appointed to fill a vacancy in the board of commissioners, was elected to serve in 1882, and again in 1884. He married Lydia C. Martin, of Richmond, N. H., September 1, 1859, and has one son and one daughter, Leon M. and Florence S. The former is a graduate of the Keene high school. Mr. Abbott became a resident of Keene in 1880.

Among the top pieces on view is a mid-17th-century English Delft cat at Alistair Sampson Antiques ($100,000). Sampson has also brought a wide selection of ceramic genre pieces, including the Staffordshire couple drinking ale shown here, which was made in 1830 and is priced at $5,900. Perhaps the most expensive piece in the show is a pair of Chinese famille rose balusters, ca. 1740, at Cohen & Cohen. The price? $320,000.
Other examples are real bargains, considering their esthetic quality and age. The oldest item at Jonathan Horne Antiques is an 13th-century English green glaze jug that is $6,000. Horne also has a large selection of charming 17th- and 18th-century English Delft tiles that are only $100 to $500. And while you're at the fair, be sure to seek out the mid-18th-century Wedgwood at Lindsay Grigsby.

JFK went down to Dallas. Hitler figured the troops would love Stalingrad in January. Saddam Hussein decided to take his chances in court instead of sticking that gun up his nose. And Mike Shanahan -- the former Mastermind -- ordered Clinton Portis to carry the freight one more time. Because of that choice, your Denver Broncos just might find themselves watching the playoffs in their living rooms. Because without Portis, the Broncos bear a striking resemblance to, say, the Buffalo Bills or the Cleveland Browns. They're a race car with no engine, dinner sans the entree.
When it comes to decision-making, good or bad, the willful Mr. Shanahan always gets his way, and he certainly couldn't have dreamed Sunday afternoon that his star running back would get hurt on his 38th carry of the day, in overtime. What Shanahan did know, or should have known, is that when the moment comes to conclude your business, you do it -- you kick the damn field goal and get everybody into the showers. But no. The king of theory wanted Portis's run to line the ball up just so -- so that a cheerleader could have booted it through, or a drunk stumbling out of the South Stands. As a result, his brilliant but overworked mule (Portis has six straight 100-yard games and 1,500-plus yards for the season) will either miss Sunday's night's crucial game against the formidable Indianapolis Colts or step onto the killer Indy AstroTurf with a tender knee and ankle. The Broncos' nice little playoff run is suddenly in grave jeopardy.
For his part, the coach said Monday that he was more worried about a Portis fumble on carry number 38 than any sort of Portis injury -- an opinion hotly debated on the sports-blab shows this week and, not insignificantly, in the minds of more than a few Denver Broncos. When Shannon Sharpe jumped into Shanahan's ear a moment after the Portis injury, the message was not just dissatisfaction, but -- judging by Sharpe's body language -- something more like revolt.
This season, Shanahan has had more questions thrown at him than Saddam's getting from the CIA, and he's got no good answer for the one that may have ended his team's post-season dream. Of course, Sunday's 23-20 squeaker over Cleveland should never have come to a field goal in OT. It should never have demanded Portis's 30th carry, much less the 38th. As with the Chicago Bears debacle, Shanahan didn't have his guys ready to play -- at home -- against a much inferior opponent. They were lucky to win the thing at all, and what they've won, more likely, is a nice seat on the couch in time for a playoff game contested by Baltimore or even the heretofore awful Cincinnati Bengals. Imagine that.

Okay anyone else offended about all the food ads that are now popping up on here. I just got one for $50 from Denny's. I've also had one from Red Lobster and it seems like another new one yesterday.
100 lb. Club - the recent pop upsView Full Version : the recent pop ups barbygirl43 11-02-2004, 10:49 AM Okay anyone else offended about all the food ads that are now popping up on here. I just got one for $50 from Denny's. I've also had one from Red Lobster and it seems like another new one yesterday. lessofsarahtolove 11-02-2004, 11:05 AM I paid the 11.00 to be ad-free. Worth every penny. vivian10 11-02-2004, 11:12 AM I have yet to see any ads....my pop up blockers must be working. Jennifer 3FC 11-02-2004, 11:27 AM Are you talking about pop-up ads? I am not getting any of those lately. I think the latest pop-up campaign was Atkins. I have seen Red Lobster banner ads but it has been a very long time, and I'm not even sure it was from here. We *might* have Red Lobster ads running. I've never seen a Denny's ad. I'll have to let Suzanne answer for sure. I know ads can be troublesome, but it is the only way to keep the forum free. We do block objectional materials such as herbal supplements, sex aids, etc. Meanwhile, do you have a spyware program? You might want to see if you have spyware on your computer that is launching these ads. Some programs that infect computers hijack advertising scripts and launch ads when you visit sites using the targeted advertising company, or keywords on the page you are visiting. If you don't have a spyware program, you can download for free here: Ad-Aware www.http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/ Search and Destroy http://www.spybot.info/en/index.html I scan my computer regularly and I always do at least 2 different scans back to back. It's like sweeping. You sweep one direction and then you go back crossways to get what was missed by the first sweep. Many fun and free programs that people download on the internet have spyware attached. That's how they get paid, for months and years to come. The spyware works like a parasite on your computer, and they can be as dangerous to your computer as some viruses. Hope this helps! Charbar 11-02-2004, 11:32 AM I own an imac - no pop ups... on any site :D Suzanne 3FC 11-02-2004, 12:22 PM I'll check with the advertiser to see what has been popped, we don't choose the ads. We don't run nonstop pops, we have a strict limit on how many a person can get. The pops on the forum are set to only give you one popunder per 24 hours. You may get one or two on the main site. We can't survive without the income from them, but we are able to limit them to what we think is fair and doesn't get in the way of our content. Some sites have a pop on every page. Spyware also triggers a lot of pops, and is usually based on keywords. The discussion of food could trigger some pops, while the term fat chick actually triggers porn pops from some types of spyware :o The only food popunder from our ad company that I'm aware of, has an image of a plate and offers gift certificates to olive garden or applebees. It's not really free, at the bottom of the ad it says Copyright 2004 DineOutFreeToday.com. All Rights Reserved. DineOutFreeToday.com is an independent rewards program for consumers and is not affiliated with any of the listed restaurants *To receive your Free Giftcard 1. Register on steps one and two. 2. Complete the survey questions on steps three through five. 3. Complete a sponsor offer of your choice on step six. 4. Get your FREE $25 Giftcard by following redemption instructions! I've never seen one for Denny's. I think I have seen a red lobster ad, but it wasn't a pop, it was just a regular banner. The ads come from an ad network that rotates a variety of ads, and they are shown across thousands of websites. If you are getting a lot of pops and want to search your system for spyware, choose the two links Jennifer included. THe problem with spyware detectors today is that a lot of them are spyware in themselves! Some are also scams, they offer free searches of your system, tell you that you have various types of programs installed, but they only remove them if you purchase the full version. However, those are false positives, tricking you into buying their program. Free popup blockers are also known for installing evil things onto your computer. Free screensavers, cursers, etc, come with extras. Most free things are spyware, because they have to pay for their service with something. Maybe they don't create pops on your computer, they have other ways generating income for themselves, which can involve stealing commissions from other sites. The best way to prevent infection from spyware, scumware, malware, etc is get rid of Internet Explorer. It's a never ended loop of security holes, and spyware developers target it. They don't target smaller browsers. I use Firefox. http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ It's free, has a safe built in popup blocker (which has the nice ability to let you choose to run pops on a per site basis, so you can choose to support 3FC by allowing a pop or two a day :) ) I enable pops for all sites that I visit regularly, except for About.com because they go overboard. It's pop-city, and sites like that ruin it for the rest of us. If you stay with IE, here's a page that tells problems with various spyware programs, and what is safe to install. http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm nelie 11-02-2004, 12:39 PM I'll just chime in and say I've seen the Denny's ads as well and I have a spyware program actively running on my PC. barbygirl43 11-02-2004, 01:35 PM I don't mind the pop ups. (I'm on a mac so I don't have to worry about spyware...yet). I do click on several when the appeal to me. It was just the content per se that I found offensive. Most if not all of us here to lose weight and when I log on here and food pops up (not even healthy food) that was what bugged me. I thought it might've been a fluke but today is the second day in a row I've gotten a food ad like that. howie6267 11-02-2004, 01:44 PM I use the Firefox browser. So no pop ups plus it's much more secure than IE. However I have seen these adds at work where I am forced to use IE. Here is a link where you can download this great browser for free. http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/index.html heather_dw 11-02-2004, 01:52 PM I also use Firefox and I like it alot, however, occasionally, I will have to use IE to surf certain sites. Also, Firefox does not support java, but I dont mind that so much, I have gotten SIGNIFIGANTly less spyware with firefox and you can tell if someone has used IE on the computer, because of the various spyware it picks up. I feel that firefox also works a bit faster than IE most times. Also I agree with the above post with the links to ad-aware and spybot. I use them both and also run Norton professional and Pestpatrol. it is sad that we have to run so many programs to get rid of this stuff. it reminds me of a Dave Chapelle skit I saw once. It was "what if the internet were a real place?" and it was all seedy and scuzzy with people popping out all the time asking if you wanted porn,.. viagra or mortgage refinancing. Then at one point he punched a guy that was bugging him about an offer and said "this is the pop up blocker"..lol howie6267 11-02-2004, 06:54 PM Firefox does support java you just have to download the java extension. Suzanne 3FC 11-02-2004, 10:10 PM The only thing I run IE for is when I pay my cable bill, because Charter doesn't seem to like Firefox. Otherwise, I'd uninstall it and use the space for something useful :) I also find that Adware and Spybot come up clean now, I've not had anything harmful in a long time. They pick up some ad tracking cookies, but I don't care about that and don't bother deleting them. vBulletin® v3.6.7, Copyright ©2000-2015, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

Performance Management Myths and Reality (Part One of Three)
Performance Solutions Technology
Performance management systems have become an important tool in building an organizational culture of choice, and can deliver tremendous results. However, it's not very common to have a comprehensive "road map" when embarking on a performance management system implementation—which can lead to serious mistakes in dealing with the people, process, and technology of performance management.

While many ERP systems claim to cater to the process manufacturing industry, a closer look reveals that in reality, little distinction is made within ERP applications to readily address the fundamental needs of a process versus a discrete manufacturer.

It has been estimated that two-thirds of all complex technology solutions, such as customer relationship management (CRM), enterprise resource planning (ERP), and performance management result in less than successful outcomes. Implementing a complex technology-enabled performance management solution is a worthwhile, but significant challenge.

The hot start that the St. Louis Cardinals got off to is looking more and more like they beat up on a weak front-loaded schedule. When the Atlanta Braves arrived in town on Mother's Day weekend, the Cardinals were on top of the NL Central with a 20-11 record. After the Braves beat up the Cardinals for a three-game sweep, they sent the Redbirds into a tail-spin they have yet to snap completely out of.

The Edge Sport's huge 22-inch wheels look cool, but I think the SUV looks less "sporty" and more "lifted hoopty." Unlike your typical big-rimmed hoopty, though, the Edge's ride is surprisingly comfortable, as my colleagues have also noted.
I do like the Edge Sport's special blacked-out head- and taillamps. Someday, vintage Ford Edge owners might even seek out the Sport's lamps to customize their less flashy ride. I doubt that collectors will want anything to do with the somewhat tacky "SPORT" graphics on the HVAC surround, though.
The Sport model's handling is improved over that of more pedestrian Edges, but I'm not sure that I'd be willing to pay up to $8000 over the basic--but still recommendable--Edge, even though this model does get standard leather seats with Alcantara inserts.

Columbus has collected almost $69 million over the seven years the city has charged patients for ambulance rides to the hospital.
The program is generating more money than expected, and EMS crews want the cut they say they were promised to buy high-tech medicines and medical equipment.
When first proposed in 2001, the plan to bill insurance companies to transport patients was expected to raise about $5 million a year.
Last year, ambulance fees brought in $14.3 million, and revenue through June is $6.6 million.
The increase is attributed to conservative early estimates, higher charges for transporting and a soaring number of EMS runs over the years.
The money goes into the city's general fund to pay for daily operations, including street repairs, workers' salaries, police cruisers, snow plows, new medic units and other equipment. The money also has helped hire more police and firefighters, officials said.
"It's like any other revenue source," said Deputy Public Safety Director Dan Giangardella. "It's allocated in the budget process."
The city charges each patient's health-insurance plan $561 to $965, based on the level of care needed, plus $11.56 per mile to a hospital.
None of the money is earmarked for the Columbus Division of Fire, which accounts for 31 percent of the city's budget, Giangardella said.
When charging for ambulance rides initially was discussed, the fire union opposed the idea, saying it was an additional tax, said Jack Reall, president of the International Association of Fire Fighters Local 67.
So a new line item was created in the fire budget to buy new technology.
"When it was first set up, it was supposed to be some money set aside, some EMS seed tech money," said Capt. Shawn Koser, supervisor of continuous quality improvement for the division.
"Early in the patient-care reporting, they were giving us some money as promised, but that went away."
Koser said the line item was about $10,000 to $20,000 a year. The Fire Division used it to buy 40 to 50 breathing machines and supplies and monitors to measure the carbon-monoxide level in patients' blood.
"We were promised that they would set aside new money for new technology to try out," Reall said.
Giangardella and Council President Michael C. Mentel said they don't recall any promise or a line item.
Reall said Mentel and then-Council President Matt Habash sent a letter to the fire union agreeing to the line item.
Reall couldn't find the 2002 letter; Mentel said he didn't recall it. Habash didn't return phone calls to his office at the Mid-Ohio Foodbank.
Melinda T. Swan, former chief of staff for the City Council, negotiated the deal with the fire-union leaders. She said she recalls a letter outlining the details.
"It existed, but I don't remember the specifics of it," she said.
Mentel said the ambulance-billing legislation allowed for increased funding of technology, pharmaceuticals and equipment in the general Fire Division budget.
Giangardella said that since EMS billing started in 2003, the medical-supply budget has doubled and the city has added electronic medical records and new cots to hold people who weigh up to 650 pounds.
"Those are things we have done that we wouldn't have been able to do if we did not have the additional dollars," he said.
Battalion Chief Dave Whiting attributed the rising medical-supply budget to the fact that paramedics can no longer exchange supplies with hospitals.
Hospitals used to bill patients for these items, but when the city started charging for transports, the division had to start buying its own supplies, he said.
Reall said the electronic medical records are necessary more for billing purposes than for anything the Fire Division needs.
Mentel said he didn't know there was a problem with EMS billing dollars.
Reall said he'd like 80 percent or 90 percent of the money collected from ambulance runs to go back to the Fire Division.
He acknowledged that it might not change the size of the Fire Division's budget, but "it would be easier for us to reconcile the importance for EMS billing to our budget," he said.
